Welcome to the Frenchman Mountain Great
Unconformity site! This site is a virtual geologic field trip to
Frenchman Mountain near Las Vegas, Nevada, where an extraordinary
interval of the Earth's strata is exposed.
Take a virtual hike to a
spectacular point overlooking the Las Vegas Valley. Along the way you
can examine some of the rocks and minerals exposed along the trail.

Unconformity Geologic Interpretive Site and Trail (if you plan to visit
